        <h2 id="sec-intro">Introduction</h2>
        
<p about="http://eurocris.org/ontology/index.html">The CERIF Semantics comprises a Semantic Layer and a Vocabulary defined by EuroCRIS. This Semantic Vocabulary contains a set of RDFS classes for represent entity classifications and roles for entity links, respectively.</p><p about="http://eurocris.org/ontology/index.html">This controlled vocabulary is intended to gather the relevant types and roles in the research context of the involved VOA3R entities. The vocabulary includes several RDF classes describing CERIF classification schemes, e.g. types of organizational units, as well as a number of RDF classes semantically enriching the relationships between CERIF entities, like roles of a person in a research project. </p>
      
<p about="http://eurocris.org/ontology/index.html">The CERIF ontology’s properties <em>cerif:classification</em> and <em>cerif:relationship</em> will allow us to link resources from CERIF dataset with the terms of this document</p>

        <h2 id="sec-evolution">Evolution and Extension of the CERIF Semantic Vocabulary</h2>
        
        <p>The <em>Common European Research Information Format (CERIF) Semantic Vocabulary</em> is identified by the namespace URI
        '<code about="http://eurocris.org/ontology/semcerif#" property="vann:preferredNamespaceUri" datatype="xsd:anyURI">http://eurocris.org/ontology/semcerif#</code>'. Revisions and
        extensions of the <em>Common European Research Information Format (CERIF) Semantic Vocabulary</em> are conducted through edits to this document,
        which by convention is accessible in the Web via the namespace URI.
        For practical and deployment reasons, note that <b>we do not
            update the namespace URI as the vocabulary matures</b>.
        </p>
        
        <p>
        The evolution of the <em>Common European Research Information Format (CERIF) Semantic Vocabulary</em> is best considered in terms of the
        stability of individual vocabulary terms, rather than the
        specification as a whole. As terms stabilise in usage and
        documentation, they progress through the categories
        '<strong>unstable</strong>', '<strong>testing</strong>' and
        '<strong>stable</strong>'. Older terms are marked '<strong>archaic</strong>' which allows the possibility of older forms to become modern again.</p><!--STATUSINFO-->
